In the templates section i have to scroll down a lot to see all the templates like the infantry one is top, and than have to drag down the page to see the others and kavalry is all the way down

Any hope of camelry being added?

unit stat descriptions are black text on a black background making them unreadable for me too.
Any solution??
Holcroft Mar 18, 2021 @ 6:29am 
Appears to be broken as of 1.10.4, unit stat descriptions are black text on a black background making them unreadable.

Apparently the contrast change was done on purpose? If so that really should be a sub-mod.

Is there a way you could add one more, for 'Guards' because it ain't Grenadiers.
溜溜橙 Feb 21, 2021 @ 8:27am 
good mod! more beautiful than the old one, well, could you like add some artillery counters in this mod? you know, there are some division are artillery division in this game……thanks!

pls update, the icons are buggy for me!!
Nuclear Winter Aug 23, 2020 @ 3:55pm 
I found that this mod in particular blacks out the naval stats screen in the ship builder. Bad Mod!
Johnny Cocas Aug 3, 2020 @ 10:29am 
I used to like your mods, I truly did, but with every update the MPU mods change something they didn't before, those changes are not listed anywhere, and makes compatibility with other mods impossible because you never know exactly what this mod does until you install and try it yourself... These MPU mods have been the cause for many visual glitches and odd features for too long, and I'm sad to say, you've lost a subscriber...Not only for this mod, but for all of the MPU mods! Disabling all your mods was the only thing that allowed me to play this game without any visual and/or compatibility issues

I have the same problem @olsson.kindgren has. While trying to figure out which of the dozens of mods (including other MPU mods) I had turned on caused the problem, turning just this one mod off and leaving all of the rest on resolved the problem.

I'm not sure how land unit division icons could possibly affect the naval unit designer stat screen, but it does. I blame Paradox. Tastes like chicken.
Pacemaker Jul 1, 2020 @ 4:04am 
Yeah...i totally understand....was just interested in knowledge of why ....not a big deal. I really love this mod....ugh....great times! Thank you for your detailed response...makes sense.
mpu.daemos  [author] Jun 30, 2020 @ 5:54am 
@Pacemaker: I've had a few requests to add the regiment echelon back in to the division icons but in order to do so, I've had to remove a few of the existing units (div icons are limited to a total of 1024). After doing a bit of a survey with my LAN mates, I tried to pick those that we all used the least... which ended up being the HQ and training icons (they were a bit niche), the fortress garrison icon (most of us just used an alternative colour), the jaeger and jungle infantry (we mostly used the green / olive infantry icons instead), and amphibious and modern armour.
Pacemaker Jun 30, 2020 @ 3:49am 
Question.....the Jager icons are gone from mine....is there a reason or are the conflicting with another mod?
olsson.kindgren Jun 30, 2020 @ 3:49am 
MPU base mod, MPU Theatre Icons (L) - NATO like counters, MPU Division Icons - NATO like counters, Six support companies, Colored Air Force (background).
mpu.daemos  [author] Jun 30, 2020 @ 1:23am 
@olsson.kindgren: In attempt to make them easier to read, I have inverted the stats everywhere so it's light text on a dark background... if you can list all the mods you use, I'll see if it's clashing with something else
olsson.kindgren Jun 29, 2020 @ 3:55am 
The new version deletes the statistics for divisions and ships in the production section.
Pacemaker Jun 27, 2020 @ 3:01pm 
I agree with Mexico Man! Thank you for this Mod ! I have a hard time playing without it!
mexico mann Jun 26, 2020 @ 8:47am 
Hey man I just want to say I really love these mods, they make my gaming experance so much more enjoyable
mpu.daemos  [author] Jun 26, 2020 @ 5:01am

Fasz_fej_jankó Jun 13, 2020 @ 11:00am

Pacemaker Mar 20, 2020 @ 12:09pm 
oh man OH MAN!!!! THANKS!!!
mpu.daemos  [author] Mar 20, 2020 @ 9:46am 
Updated to 1.9.0
Drenko Mar 1, 2020 @ 8:01pm 
Amazing mod but needs an update...
Baldos Feb 25, 2020 @ 10:18am 
please update to 1.9.1 Thanks
mpu.daemos  [author] Dec 11, 2019 @ 12:31am 
Updated to v1.8.1
I've only given this a quick test so let me know if there's any problems
mpu.daemos  [author] Aug 14, 2019 @ 3:28pm 
@Shavius: For the AI, you will normally just see the standard unit icon (i.e. what you get if you choose the default unit icon for a division). Having said that, if you're using any mods that create custom divisions templates that select a custom icon for them, it's possible that they'll end up with an icon that doesn't match. (It's really only total overhaul mods that have their own division icons where you'll see this)
Shavius Aug 14, 2019 @ 2:13am 
Does ai know how to use them?
mpu.daemos  [author] Jul 21, 2019 @ 11:51pm 
@Ishimaru Mitsuki: Unfortunately I've had to modify the mapicons.gui to account for the extra height in my division icons (unit echelon above the icon), making it incompatible with most map counter mods... which is why I decided to add my own map counter mods, since it's easy for me to maintain compatibility between my own mods.

I.e. MPU - Map Counters (S) / (M) / (L) are compatible with this, most other map counter mods won't be.
vladimir the bot impaler Jul 21, 2019 @ 1:34pm 
does DzK alternative counters work with this?
Switch Jul 18, 2019 @ 8:01am 
@mpu.daemos Happy to report that having tested the following mods: MPU Base Mod, MPU Division Icons - NATO like counters, MPU Theatre Icons (L), and MPU Theatre Icons More Colours, everything is working as intended, and all is well.

I did however come across an issue regarding the mod 12 Support Companies and MPU Division Icons - NATO like counters. With both mods enabled, the selected Army divisions list icons are overlapped and squashed slightly as outlined in the linked image here: https://imgur.com/SaPsMIK

Without MPU Div Icons, they appear normal. Not a huge deal-breaker, given I can live without 12 Support Companies, but worth bringing to your attention none the less.

Other than that, great work daemos. Thanks for the update!
mpu.daemos  [author] Jul 18, 2019 @ 5:06am 
After testing all (I hope) of the various combinations, I've just updated the base mod, division icons, unit icons and S, M, L counter mods to fix various offset issues (and the horrible resized vanilla icons in the M and L counter mods).

If anyone is still having problems, let me know what combination of mods you're using
Switch Jul 16, 2019 @ 10:13pm 
Can confirm what Baldos is reporting regarding the inclusion of MPU Division Icons - NATO like counters. Without them, the division icons on the map counter sit nice and centered properly. With the mod added, they sink half-way down.

Enabling MPU Map Counters (S) corrects the problem, but sadly for me I just find the entire counter a little too big for my liking and prefer the vanilla size. I also have no idea if MPU Map Counters (S) conflicts in any way with other mods such as Strategic View Adjustments.
Baldos Jul 14, 2019 @ 7:14pm 
@Nootjes85,@ mpu.daemos
used "MPU-Map Counters (S)" and the NATO symbols are centered! Thanks @Nootjes85
When I tried "MPU-Map Counter (M) the NATO symbols were off center to the top of the counter.
without "MPU-Map Counter " the NATO symbols were off center to the bottom of the counter.

Just in case anyone else runs into the issue I was having where the game would randomly hitch any time an event happened for you or the AI, try restarting your PC. Fixed the issue completely for me. Not sure why it fixed it, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nootjes85 Jul 14, 2019 @ 11:06am 
@Baldos, i had the same problem. The fix is to add 'MPU - Map Counters'.
Baldos Jul 13, 2019 @ 5:06pm 
@mpu.daemos it shows up when I start with a new game with both this mod-"MPU Division Icons - NATO like counters" only and with this mod and the "MBU base mod"

The nato symbols were always centered prior to the Jul 12th update.
and in Vanilla
Baldos Jul 13, 2019 @ 5:00pm 
@mpu.daemos it starts with a new game for both
Metal Izanagi Jul 13, 2019 @ 4:25pm 
Just an update, it's almost assuredly not your mods causing the issue I've been running into. Even with all of your mods disabled, it's still happening. Probably something on my end, really sorry about the false flag!
Metal Izanagi Jul 13, 2019 @ 4:12am 
Thanks!
mpu.daemos  [author] Jul 13, 2019 @ 4:03am 
@Metal Izanagi: not sure about the slowdowns... although I did have some compatibility issues with KR in the past due to inclusion of militia as a unit type (of all things). When I get a chance, I'll double check that I haven't broken militia in KR, I guess it might cause a slow down looking for a missing texture maybe???

The blurry textures are definitely a thing though... one of my mates wanted to use the Medium counters but I'd only had time to finish the small version. Since I didn't have my tools with me to build the actual medium sized icons, I quickly resized them all in photoshop so we could get on with a game. I'll update again soonish with some proper / non-scaled icons
Metal Izanagi Jul 13, 2019 @ 3:46am 
With the addition of the base mod as a prerequisite I'm noticing some strange slowdown in Kaiserreich. Haven't added, removed, or changed anything with mods since the last time I was playing a couple of days ago, but now every few days in-game it freezes for about 8-10 seconds, usually at either 22:00, 24:00, or 1:00. Logs don't indicate anything weird going on, either.

Is it possible that this is the result of any of the changes made for the recent update?

Additionally, when using the medium map counter mod the default icons appear on the counters for the divisions AI nations use,(since they don't use your new division icons) but now look really low-res and off-center.
mpu.daemos  [author] Jul 13, 2019 @ 12:48am 
@Baldos: does it do it for a new game or just when you load your save? I've seen some weird stuff happen when you a load a game saved when you were using a different mod version.
